Summary: way way way past their prime
Comment: i've been a stones' fan since they started in '63.especially liked their music when brian jones was a member, and when he died mick taylor did great work. started losing my enthusiasm when ron wood joined the band, and it's been down hill ever since. that being said, i still purchased this concert film because it was directed by the great scorcese.
although the stones sounded pretty much like i thought they would, not great; i was disappointed with scorcese, because i expected something in 'the last waltz' vein, but this doesn't come close. this is not a concert dvd that i will be going back to very often. my expectations were too high, but i should have known better. in 'the last waltz' "the band" knew when it was time to go their separate ways; the stones should have also realized that a long time ago. it would have saved them the embarrassment of playing at the super bowl. have they no pride? i guess, for them,especially in the recent past, it was always for the money.
next stop: perhaps a regularly scheduled lounge act in vegas.

Summary: Mick Jagger 3 Stories High
Comment: When I saw Shine A Light in IMAX, Mick and Keith were 3 stories high and it wasn't enough. I had to go back and see it twice. This is the best rockn'roll film of the Greatest Rockn'roll band in the World. If they can't rock you, nobody can.

Summary: Why did Scorsese direct this?
Comment: First off, I am a world class Stones fan. I am also a Scorsese fan. I don't see what this great director added to the Stones legacy. There are plenty of Rolling Stones concerts from the last twenty years on DVD. The last two tours were heavily documented by the Stones themselves. This production is nothing special. I think some of the concerts filmed by the Stones are better. The only thing to sell this particular product with is the inclusion of songs not previously on DVD, such as Tears Go By and She Was Hot. Jack White's duet was not particularly good. Christina Aguilera's was better, and Buddy Guy was probably the best of the star turns. But this is not riveting stuff. The fans need a more historical documentary, since 25X5 has never been issued on DVD. There has to be a ton of interesting footage from Brian Jones onward. Go ask Bill Wyman, he's probably got the motherlode squirreled away. As for 'Shine A Light', I don't get it. What did Martin Scorsese add?

Summary: You get what you need...
Comment: Well into his 60's, Mick remains a true rockstar... an immensely talented and amazingly athletic explosion of raw energy. In a polished performance (re-lived countless times over nearly half a century) the Stones still look like they're having fun. The beat is solid, the songs are tight and these old men make it look easy. Watch it and enjoy it. It can't last --time catches up with us all.
